In other news, Paulie Shore was attacked by bees today further setting back his long planned comeback comedy tour. Comedy around the globe breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the fates.

[Jake]

Osoria has some pimpin eye wear.

 

I think he's ready to get promoted to the Angels.

 

They can't just take the Cubs AAAA players without compensation.

 

Dave Littlefield doesn't work for us anymore.

[cubbyvirus00]

Looking good wood..........CUBS WIN

[Jake]

[Andy]

Back on the winning path with Cy Dempster going tomorrow. Like it, like it a LOT.

He did some good things for us. More awful than good to be sure. But, some things were good.

His drafts set you back 15 years.

No good saboteur screws everything up.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Good to see the boys eek out a close one, especially, again in a game where someone named Zambrano or Dempster isnt pitching.

[UMFan83]

Geez. Pirates 0-4 against the Cubs and 7-5 against everyone else!

[Little Slide Rooter]

So when does Nate McClouth become a free agent? I hope Hendry has his agent on speed dial.

Arbitration eligible next season.

 

He's hit in every game this year.

On the other hand, Cubs are 4-0 against the Pirates and 6-6 against everyone else.

Nothing wrong with that! And, to be fair, we've gone (by series):

 

1-2 vs. Brewers

2-1 vs. Astros

3-0 vs. Pirates

1-2 vs. Phillies

2-1 vs. Reds

1-0 vs. Pirates

 

That is pretty decent. The Phillies and the Brewers are both good teams and will be in playoff contention; the Reds aren't bad and are expected to be quite good -- maybe even contend. Think of it another way and we are 6-1 vs. the lesser teams and 4-5 vs. the better teams. That's how you make the playoffs... play .500 against the good teams and dominate the bad teams.

Exactly. The past few years we've seemed to struggle against the Reds and Pirates, it's good to start whipping them right off the bat.

That seems to be a good sign. Z's strong start is another. Let's see where it leads.
